Three new-to-me blooms 9/13

I'm so happy today, I've got three first time blooms. I thought they would open so I rushed home on my lunch hour to take pictures!

First one is named Fabulous - I really like it a lot!

I like the look of Fabulous so much, I have to show her close-up.

The second new one is Magic Moments. I was expecting more of a color variation, but I'm probably just wanting too much too soon. It's very pretty, just thought there would be more of a purple in the center. Sorry for the not very good picture.

My last new one is Pina Colada. Obviously spurred on by pictures of my mom's plant, mine decided to bloom too. Lovely!

And now some that I've shown previously. Suede Buttons has two lovely flowers.

Oooh Karen, I love Fabulous! I'm pretty sure I recently bought that one for myself, but it hasn't bloomed yet, I better go check for buds! (I've come home over lunch on occasion too to catch a hibiscus in perfect bloom...unfortunately I can't always do that, but it's nice when I can!)

Soft Spot.

Voodoo Magic is back to its darker color with today's new bloom.

And, last but not least, Molten Lava.

Of course you KNOW I am going to say I love your Voodoo Magic! Its a brown, of course :)
And then soft spot is finally showing some of her pink, which is delicately beautiful.
But, of the new ones, Pina Colado is my pick of the day :)

I couldn't send any yesterday, so both are included today. First up:

Anna Nicole

Chiffon Breeze

Gator Pride, I think.
I am getting sooooo confused!

High Voltage

Ole Faithful Montserrat

Royal Treasure.
I don't know why the background is so dark, but it makes it more intriquing, lol

My first ever bloom, and what a beauty she is:

Stolen Kiss

PS...thank you Robert.

Tarantella

My neighbor came over this morning and fell in love with her. So, he now has it in a vase :)

pss. Excuse the dirt on my hand.

Voodoo Queen
this morning

Anna Nicole first thing the morning. Her colors change from greenish to brownish

Fabulous is TRULY living up to her name!!

Here's my Schizo from yesterday evening before she relaxed.

Fabulous is fabulous!! I always like Tarantella, too. I have to get her next year.

Great pictures, Cat and Amanda. Love that Anna Nicole, very unusual!

Hello all. Very beautiful blooms. Cat how big was the 1st bloom out of Stolen kiss. My blooms are usually 7" to 9". I see Voodoo Queen put on a show for you today also. Very nice!!!

Karen you know how I love the voodoo's. All are beautiful on your side of the US as well.
Amanda love the Skitzo!!!

Hopefully I can post some tomorrow. We are still running off generators and I just log on and log off so I dont get a spike and loose any PC's.

PS we may have power back tomorrow. Yea!!! I am keeping my fingers crossed!!!

H Robert, she was easly 7 or 8 inches and really, really beautiful! That was the excitement of my day :)
